Like Pei Tong, there are ancestors on the top, uncles staring at them, and a bunch of cousins ​​waiting in line behind them. It is extremely rare to be valued by the elders of the family and take them out to socialize and meet some of the family’s children. Opportunity, in order to make a good impression on the elders or friends, such occasions are usually like a follower waiting by the side, let alone leave alone, just want to say a few more words and think about it. .

Gu Xi also came from such a wealthy family, and naturally knew that Pei Tong was not easy.

After hearing Pei Tong's words, she couldn't help feeling softened. The original cold words brought a bit of sincerity and became tender: "Mrs. Da, no one was sent to visit Miss Yu today, do you know?"

Pei Tong had no idea what happened.

He has been in the capital since he can remember, staying with his parents, thinking that he is the long-term grandson of this family, the eldest of his generation, of course the resources of the family must be close to him, and after he has achieved success, he must also be taken care of. Brothers and sisters. So he has always been complacent.

But he didn't know until he returned to Lin'an. Although he is the boss of his generation, the resources in the family are not the first to keep him close. If he wants to use these resources in the family, he has to come up with convincing skills. Not only that, the Pei family also has two Pei Chan and Pei Bo who may be more advanced than him in their studies.

Just as the sun used to revolve around him, but now suddenly the sun will also fall on other people.

He was not used to it for a long time.

Fortunately, he was brought up by his father, and he developed a tenacious temperament when he was a child, and he adjusted in less than half a year.

Otherwise, how can their house have such a good day now?

In the past, he promised to marry Gu Xi, first because of sadness and felt that his cousin is no longer there. It's the same with whoever he marries. Secondly, he saw that he and his younger brother were struggling in Pei's house, and some wanted to borrow Gu Chang's power to get out of the puddle of Pei's house. I didn't feel much about Gu Xi.

Now that Gu Xi asked, his eyes lit up.

He naturally knew what his mother was like. He had too strong self-esteem and too arrogant. There were certain things that shouldn't be done, but he just wanted to do it.

He didn't know what had happened to Miss Yu, but Gu Xi made a special trip to ask him this. It was obvious that her mother had done something wrong again.

Since his father's death, he has not asked for help from his mother, but only asked her not to hold him back.

He said solemnly: "I stayed with my second uncle all day until my third uncle sent someone over to let the second uncle go to the hall to preside over today's donation ceremony. Then I followed my second uncle to the hall. What happened to Miss Yu? My mother. What else did you do?"

Gu Xi let out a long sigh of relief.

She is afraid of meeting someone who is foolish and filial.

So even if she has eighteen martial arts, she has nothing to display.

She told Pei Tong about Yu Tang's fainting, and then said in a deep voice: "I know that the eldest wife is happy to be quiet, but now everyone is staring at the place where Miss Yu lives. I think the eldest wife feels There is no need to visit Miss Yu in person, and a woman should be sent to greet her. After all, there is a second wife serving in front of the old lady."

This comparison is too obvious.

It will also affect the reputation of the two brothers Pei Tong.

Gu Xi is well aware of the importance of speaking skills, she relies on this stepmother to crush her to death.

She warmly said: "The eldest lady is sad and sad. Where can I be in the mood to socialize to those who are in charge, and it is not easy to walk around during the period of filial piety to the elder. You two brothers grew up in the capital again, and others must be very strange to you. The more at this time , The more you should move around with each room. When others know yours, they will naturally speak for you if they have anything to do!"

It is this reason.

Pei Tong is very smart, and found this problem not long after he came back. But after all, he is a son and a man. It is not convenient for him to come forward for these social entertainments in the house, and other people are even more afraid to say something.

He looked at Gu Xi carefully.

At the age of eighteen or nine years old, her skin is white and red, with brows and apricot eyes. Although she is not very beautiful, she has a gentle temperament. She looks like a girl who reads.

Plus there is a pair of exquisite hearts.

Pei Tong was satisfied with Gu Xi at once.

Maybe this is destiny!

He has been waiting for his cousin, but the cousin died young. He and Miss Gu are tens of thousands of miles apart, but they are about to marry Miss Gu as his wife.

Pei Tong sighed slightly, condensing the joys and sorrows in her heart, and sincerely thanked Gu Xi: "Thank you! If it weren't for your reminder, I don't know about this. I will discuss this with my mother when I go back tonight. But, you should have heard, my mother doesn’t care much, I’m afraid these things will trouble you in the future. If you hear anything in the future, please tell me more, lest we do anything rude I don’t know it yet."

This is to listen to her persuasion.

Gu Xi was very satisfied.

She is going to live with Pei Tong in the future. If Pei Tong's heart is biased towards the big wife and she can't listen to anything she said, her life will be difficult.

Pei Tong was still busy there, she didn't dare to delay, and after a few words with Pei Tong, they left.

Gu Xi went to her room, unavoidably passing by the place where Yu Tang lived.

She closed her ears to listen.

At this time, the sky was already dark, and the lanterns were lit up where Yu Tang lived, and the lights were brilliant, as if even the sky was lit up a bit, and the eyes were very bright. The faint laughter in the yard also arrogantly told those who came to the Zhaoming Temple lecture, how lively it is and how popular the owner in the yard is.

Gu Xi's chest felt uncomfortable like a big rock was pressed.

Hexiang said: "Should we go in and say hello?"

"Are you going to lift the sedan chair for Yu Tang?" Gu Xi glanced at the big red Ruyi Gate coldly, and said, "Is she worthy?"

He Xiang was taken aback and almost went to cover Gu Xi's mouth. Fortunately, Gu Xi just said such a sentence, then held her head high and left quickly.

Of course, Yu Tang didn’t know what was going on outside. She was listening to Qing Yuan talking about Mrs. Shi to Mrs. Pei and Mrs. Yang: “...just like that, Mrs. Liu doesn’t hurt anymore. I think she still has a lot of pain. It’s true. Otherwise, Mr. Hu wouldn’t dare to introduce him to the home. As for whether he can strengthen his body, beautify and slim down, then he has to try."

The second wife and Mrs. Yang nodded again and again. The second wife even said: "Let’s not talk about that. I’m so tired these days, I’ll call her over tomorrow to help me loosen my bones. I’ve heard of such a doctor in the palace before, but I didn’t expect us. Lin'an also has it."

Mrs. Yang said: "The empress dowager likes massage. It is said that there are seven or eight massage doctors in the palace who take turns on duty and press for a while every day."

"Then dare to love it!" The second wife said happily, "We all try. Mrs. Yu is also with him. Such an opportunity is too rare."

"Me, me too?!" The Chen family had never thought of letting a stranger give him a massage. He felt awkward after thinking about it, and said, "It's still not possible? I'll take a look next to him."

"Oh, we have a companion together, what are you afraid of!" The second wife smiled and asked Qing Yuan, "Will the doctor come in tomorrow to give Ms. Yu moxibustion? What time is set? Let's find her for a massage, is it too late? ?"

Yu Tang hurriedly said: "It's too late! She said that moxibustion can't be too long, three quarters of an hour at most. Don't watch her stay with me all afternoon, in fact, she talks to me most of the time."

The second wife was a little unwilling to hear the gossip.

Yu Tang hurriedly explained: "I didn't talk about other people's homes, so I just used myself to talk about things. It's kind of amused."

"No!" Chen said with a smile, "I haven't said anything about the family's in-laws and wives. They are all about her own business."

This is a sense of measure!

Mrs. Yang San also came and asked Yu Tang how does it feel to moxibustion? Think about whether you want to follow it and experience it.

Everyone was talking happily, Pei Yan came over.

Mrs. Yang took out her pocket watch and looked at it suspiciously, and said, "Why are the third masters here so late?"

Yu Tang subconsciously did not dare to answer.

The Chen family was also at a loss, and said, "Maybe it's coming to see Atang? The third master also visited Atang in the morning. After all, he fainted at Zhaoming Temple."

The Pei family has funded the seminar again, and both emotions and reason should care more about Yu Tang's body.

Everyone was relieved, and Mrs. Yang smiled and stood up and said: "It's too early, we will go back first. I will see you tomorrow morning."

She said the last sentence to Yu Tang.

Yu Tang wanted to get up to send Mrs. Yang San and Miss Xu, the two refused: "You just happen to have this disease, so you should keep it in the house. Don't tire yourself out of such trivial matters."

Seeing that she couldn’t get rid of it, and knowing that Mrs. Yang San was pretending to be sick, it would be no fun in the house, so she invited: “Then, shall we have breakfast together tomorrow? Bring us more from the kitchen."

Miss Xu also thought it was good, and smiled and shook Mrs. Yang's sleeve.

Mrs. Yang felt that it would be good to come out for a walk, and said, "Then we will come here early tomorrow."

Chen responded happily and sent Miss Xu and Mrs. Yang out.

The second wife also felt that it was getting late, so when Pei Yan came, she said hello, and took the young ladies of Pei's family to leave.

Seeing that Pei Yan looked bad, Yu Tang invited him to sit down at the round table in the hall and made tea for him himself, saying: "It is the tea made by the master of Zhaoming Temple. Everyone thinks it is good. Are you accustomed to drinking it? Don't let Girl Qingyuan come and bring some tea you are used to?"

"No need!" Pei Yan looked at Yu Tang's ruddy face, her eyes were radiant, and she was in a good mood, and smiled, "I'm not so particular!"

Still not particular? !

The light from the corner of Yu Tang's eyes quickly swept across Pei Yan's feet.

He wore a pair of seemingly ordinary black double-beam shoes, but the two ridges were inlaid with gold and silver threads, and there was a little light, and they were shining... and the edges of the shoes were embroidered with the same color moiré...

She is a woman who is not so particular about it, okay!

Don't know what his so-called "exquisiteness" looks like?

Yu Tang slandered in his heart, but he didn't show it at all on his face. Turning around and personally took a small Jiugongge Zanhe to make refreshments for Pei Yan, and said respectfully: "The third master is coming here, but what's the important thing?"
